Hi Gustavo - thank you for your reply.  :-)

I have investigated the one-to-one mapping tag, but from what I can
understand the parent class "A" would have to slave its id property to
its child class "B" and I do not want that.

Reading this link I got an idea:
http://sdesmedt.wordpress.com/2006/07/24/nhibernate-part-3-mapping-techniques-for-aggregation-one-to-one-mapping/

In it Serge suggests mapping this relationship as one-to-many
association where the "B" entity is reduced to a component. Currently
that seems to be the most promising path. Either that or I'll have to
convince the rest of the team to add a propery "Id" column to the "B"
table.

Thomas
